Jehovah blessed as the source of strength

Psalm 144 blesses Jehovah as the source of strength. Its plea
for the destruction of the enemies is, What is man? Why should
Jehovah make account* of such a worm, and delay bringing in blessing
by thus lingering in judgment? Deliverance is thus looked for, for
the full true final blessing of Israel. Happy the people in such a
case: happy the people who have Jehovah for their God! Directly, the
psalm applies to David himself, who is named in it, and owns God, as
subduing his (David's) people under him, as the source of royal
power. I do not see that it brings in any personally in the latter
day. Did it so, it would be "the prince"; for there will be a human
house of David on the earth. But it is the bringing in of the people
into that state of subjection under Christ, when they will be
willing in the day of His power, when in the day of Jezreel they
will appoint themselves one head, when the day will be great, when
Jehovah will utterly scatter the power of the enemies of Israel,
give them a new song, and bless them. Messiah will surely be their
head; but it is prophetically spoken of by David in person. The true
Beloved will be their sure head.
